For those of you who do play LoL, or have in the past, have you tried SMITE? I personally find it far more enjoyable.

Edit: If you do try it out, bear in mind that the basics are the same, but the game itself plays extremely differently. Also, ignore the trailer on the main page, for some reason they put some fan-made video on there and replaced the trailer they used to have (which was actually much better at selling the game).

I have heard good things, but my I haven't gotten around to trying it out yet. My options are limited game wise because I don't have a portable hard drive yet, and only select games are installed on the computers at the PC Bangs.

My only death was a misplay. I was going to kill Brand I had him in my ulti but instead of finishing him I broke the crate and ran away because Garen showed up. But I didn't realize Garen was like 12 while Brand and I were 15-16 so I could have killed Brand and ran or killed Brand then died by Garen picking it up.

Great job. Like I said, you will find a lot of people suck. Also, people who use free to play characters like Brand this week, usually have no idea how to play that character and are just experimenting with them. Not taking away what you did at all, but it is something to keep in mind (who is free to play and who is not).

Eh I'm out ofthe loop but that didn't really look like a pub stomp comp to me...

31 kills is embarrassing level for the entire team. I very rarely see over 25 kills. Anything above 15 is being fed really. I can't imagine the amount of damage he was doing with Infinity Edge and Blood Thirster.

Well upon investigating the post, apparently, the REAL first pic (your Vita menu) never loaded for me, so the first pic I meant (the second, the one of the cutscene) was the one I was referring to. Then again, my mind is a bit dirty so I see the point you're making then. Then again, I have no shame in that regard. With my brain, it is what it is

Onto said REAL first pic, I take it that's from one of the Hyper Dimension Neptunia games

Got a nice bargain earlier on Dead Rising 2 Off The Record. Playing as Frank is a nice slap of nostalgia for players of the first game but the constant Zombrex hunt is alittle irritating. Luckily the game also gives you a Sandbox mode to tinker around with to find the best methods of cutting time, exploring and leveling Frank back up.

Probably won't be getting anything game related for Christmas, my next purchase will no doubt be Anarchy Reigns in January. Can't wait to finally play it online in Sixteen player.

Trust me, Anarchy is well worth the wait, and I'm sure that $30 price point will help get it some attention. Back when the game first released in Japan matches were easy to get, but since Sega didn't advertise the game, not many people bought it and gradually people stopped playing. Shame really, it's a very fun game. Makes me really want the US release to come by sooner, so I'll have more people to play against again. What system do you plan on getting it for?

Is it fine if I sell my old weapons and armour for gold or should I keep them for something later? I remember in FFIX you needed old weapons and armour to synthesize newer, more powerful weapons and armour.

My first instinct is to hold on to them. I don't remember. I fully beat the game and got every legendary special weapon except the blue animal guys back in the day... MIght as well just hold on to them.

I am 95% sure you can just get rid of them. I don't remember having to use any old items.

In fairness I'm close to getting the plat for Tekken Tag 2, and I'm working on Fist of the North Star's platinum, which just seems to be to clear all campaigns, get a certain amount of kills with Hokuto Shinken, Nanto Seiken, and signature moves.

1. Set steam to start in Big Picture mode.
2. Set steam to run at startup
3. Use a wireless Xbox 360 controller (or gamepad with the x-pad layout)

Feels like I'm gaming on a super console and the Steam Big Picture mode UI is awesome. The Big Picture mode have some sort of startup video, ambient sound and lots of awesome animated navigation (and is very, very smooth). Steam is up to something awesome...

Serious question: Why the fuck would you use a controller with a PC? For some games I think it would be better like AC3, but why anyone would want to play a PC shooter with a controller is something I can't fathom (and most games I have on PC are FPsomethings)

I use a controller to play on PC but I don't exactly play online FPS games. I only use keyboard and mouse for games like Jedi Academy / Jedi Outcast and MMOs.

But you play FPS on a PC with a controller? I guess if it's not online then it's no biggie, but it's a well known fact that the PC doesn't have the tiny auto-aim and bullet correction like every console fps has, to account for the fact that you are using inferior controls...

I can use my TV as monitor and that in combination with any X-pad Gamepad feels great. I can lean back and relax, because single player games doesn't require much skill or precision, I only use keyboard + mouse when gaming online versus other players. Doesn't make much sense to sit straight up all day when I can chill back in front of my TV and use Gamepad, lol...

Gamepad for single player games to lean back and relax
Keyboard + Mouse for online games for precision

Every single game on steam that is controller-supported have aim assist that consoles have and automatically change over to the Xbox 360 layouts when you push any of your Gamepad buttons.

Are you sure about this? I find it difficult to believe that game makers would just give you a freebie right there, that's a huge advantage!

Oh, note this...

Single player games have that feature, not online games.

1. Whenever I play any game on steam that is controller-supported (according to steam), I just press any button on my Logitech F710 while in-game and all the Xbox 360 buttons appear out of nowhere. When I move my mouse or press my keyboard, the keyboard + mouse buttons appear.

2. I always use Keyboard + Mouse in online games (doesn't matter what genre) and aim assist doesn't work.

lol inferior controls

either way yea, I play FPS with my controller and not a single fuck was given really
I grew up on consoles so I feel much more comfortable on a pad. If I were to ever play an online FPS it would be with people I know on a console. But yea, there is auto aim on games now even on PC.

I'm going to purchase Far Cry 3 soon and use my Gamepad, lean back and spend hours gaming. Also, starting in Big Picture mode is great. I only use my self built desktop for gaming and laptop for writing here and work. That makes the big picture mode awesome for me.
